Laurent GARREAU (born 1978) Wood and metal armchair Signed and numbered Plaque on base H_93 cm W_77 cm D_100 cm Laurent Garreau, born in 1978, is a French sculptor renowned for his metal works, which combine design and narrative. His sculptures, mainly in steel, are characterized by the use of lamellae, which he shapes into forms, precisely capturing movement, anatomy and light. His work evolves towards a more precise technique, where these lamellae act as sculptural instruments, almost like a pencil or scalpel. Inspired by fantastical creatures such as dragons and insects, he regularly takes part in exhibitions, including the XL Art biennial, where he presents his large-format works.
